I think it’s safe to say that every morning after bootcamp blog will begin with OUCH. Yes, I’m sore and yes, I’m pretty certain my legs are made of overcooked pasta and sponges, however, I am sleeping like the dead! And waking up with very little problem. THAT, ladies and gentlemen, makes it worth the […]
Good Monday Morning FatChick Readers! How was your weekend? Mine was wet, but that didn’t matter because look at my new kicks! Aw yeah. They are awesome. I was hoping to break them in at the Big Dam(n) Bridge this weekend, but it was just too rainy. The water from the sky forced me to […]
The people in the picture are lying to you. There’s no smiling in bootcamp! There’s sweating, moaning, groaning, WTFing and possibly some bleeding…but definitely no smiling. So, I survived. It is gonna be hard, but I’m determined to complete the 9 sessions. These are last night’s lessons learned: Nobody is pretty at bootcamp. Except for […]
Tonight, I start bootcamp. I’ll bitch about that tomorrow. Today, I officially registered for the Little Rock Half Marathon. This will be my second half. And I’m excited. Here’s a couple of pics of me and my crew when we did the half a few years ago. (The very same half marathon that prompted the […]
Depression can be very, very sneaky. It can grab a hold of you when you least expect it…and then what do you do? Well, if you’re me, you try to eat, drink, and sleep it off. And then you wake up fat and dumpy slightly more curvy than expected. (And winter is coming (hur hur)…I […]

(aside–it was the very first ‘dirty’ song I remember understanding was dirty…) Anyway, there is a verse that goes: Who? Me? I wear baggies, zip, snap, and drop. Easy access baby. Yes, before you get a […]

What’s been going on in your FatChicksRunning world lately? I can tell you one thing this chick hasn’t been doing…and that’s running. I blogged on my personal/author blog today about completing the marathon and then just falling off the exercise bandwagon. It sucks when I do that. And I don’t know WHY I do it […]
It was hotter than balls yesterday. Honestly, walking the Big Dam(n) Bridge @2:00 in the afternoon was like walking through the flames of hell with the Heat Miser on my back. Not. Fun. So I only walked 2 miles…which is better than I’ve done in a while, but not good enough. I also did some light […]
I’m starting over. I’ve gotten lazy and soft and now I have a book signing for my 2nd book (LOVE SUCKS! HarperTeen) coming up in 6 weeks and my arms look like hams and my chin is starting to double up. All because I stopped paying attention. Sure, I have great excuses. I spent time […]
Okay, not exactly FLUFFY but I’m definitely getting soft. I’ve gained about 7 lbs and lost some muscle tone in the few weeks that I’ve been moving…houses not my body. If I had continued to move my body in that time, I might be hitting a new milestone right now. But I digress… So I […]
